Co-headline concert by Manic Street Preachers and Suede at Co-op Live.
Manic Street Preachers and Suede are playing Co-op Live on Saturday 31 October, sharing the bill as co-headliners. It's a double bill that puts two of the biggest names in British guitar music on the same stage, with both bands getting their own full set rather than one opening for the other. If you've got a soft spot for either, it's a night that lets you catch both in one go.
Having them as co-headliners means the bill is split between them. The Manics bring their brand of loud, melodic rock, and Suede bring their glam-inflected sound, so you'll get two distinct sets across the evening. It's a pairing that works because they both come from the same era of British indie, though they've always sat on opposite ends of it — the Manics with their political edge and Suede with their more theatrical, romantic streak.
Because it's a co-headline show, neither band is the 'support' here. They're both top of the bill, so you're getting two full performances rather than one main act and a shorter opening set. It's a good way to see two bands you might otherwise have to choose between.
